Do You dream of sailing? Would you like to sail around the world?
Make a Colin Archer test, it will tell you if you are a potential Colin Archer sailor. 1. With whom do you intend to sail? The number of possible boats is limited if you intend to sail with few close friends or with your family and you do not want to hire five professional sailors to do the sailing for you. Colin Arcer 40 is ideal boat for family sailing, and it also fits very well Joshua Slocums ideas of sailing: moderate sails, not over rigged, long and heavy keel, the boat that is easy to handle with windvane self steering system in the ocean 2. Do you wish to enjoy your visits in harbours? Due to the relativly round lines Colin Archer offers plenty of space and enough room also for yor library and other stuff needed when sailing around the world. Inside Colin Archer 40 you also find some very much needed privacy. In some "smartly designed" boats you feel like beeing in an akvario but not so in Colin Archer. 3. Do you want to trust to your boat? Originally Colin Archer boats were designed and built to be used as rescue boats that left Norwegian harbours to rescue fishing ships and sailors' lives. These extreamly strong boats were used in Northern Atlantic winterstorms when all the other boats were running for shelter in harbours. Colin Archer was the original fishermans friend. Colin Archer 40 is a seaworthy ocean ketch. It has been built extremely strong so that it will fare in all weathers of the ocean. Hull construction is an GRP sandwich with Divinyl core. Internal ballast is iron/lead cast resin and the stability of the boat is exceptionally high.
